It's been a long time, but Fett's coming back and I'm sparing no expense. I've collected parts over the last few years, but I've really amped up on things over the past year.

The first part that I'm going to be displaying are my MOW boots, I studied reference photos and then airbrushed these using 8 different colours. These are about 90% done, I need to do finer physical damage to the canvas and apply the toe spikes. I'm overall extremely happy with the results of the boots.

Adding the blue hue to the boots was really important to me, it can definitely be seen bleeding through the darker weathering.

WHAT?!? You've been a member of this board since 2006 and don't have a complete Boba Fett?!? Wait...what's that? Oh. Apparently I've been a member since 2006 without a complete Fett also

J/K! Boots look great!

I still fondly remember working on weathering my CAboots as though it were just yesterd...2007

It's gone through its cycles! I still have a completely wearable Fett worth of parts, but I'm starting from the bare bones this go around. No corner cutting.

Looks really good GCN!! I'm in the same boat as you. Took a break for quite a few years, slowly collected new parts, and finally starting to build up again.

I agree with you that the blue on the boots is important, and will be going for the same look with my new mows just like yours.

Toe spikes are applied and are weathered. Boots are now completed.

Thanks! I just drilled the holes and filled them with E-6000, then put the pegs in that Mojo supplies
